In December 2023, Manji Le’an fled the armed attack on his Dungwel community in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State, seeking refuge in Mangu town with his uncle.
The recent violence in Mangu has reignited the trauma for Le'an, as he witnessed the unthinkable. His uncle's house was set ablaze by neighbors, forcing them to relocate once again.
Le’an, recounting the horror, reveals that the attackers celebrated the destruction, adding layers of distress to an already devastating situation. The attacks, claiming over 30 lives and reducing several houses to ashes, have left survivors grappling with the psychological toll of fear and uncertainty.
As Mangu faces these tragic events, urgent calls for intervention and heightened security measures echo through the region.
